Hamas To Convert Synagogue to Weapons Museum
Read this post at LittleGreenFootballs. I could not have said it better, so I'll let Charles Johnson say it himself:
I’m reading this again, and wondering where the hell is the world’s outrage about this? Newsweek prints a false rumor that a Koran was dunked in a toilet, and the entire planet goes nuts. Hamas announces that they’re going to turn a Jewish house of worship into a memorial to mass murder ... and the silence is absolutely deafening.
Yes Charles. And I know we've seen it all before. And there's just no getting used to it, is there?
I wrote earlier about the fledgling new contacts between Israel and Pakistan. I thought they were misguided, but harmless. India was displeased, and understandably so, but I thought there really wasn't anything to worry about.
I could be wrong. It is conceivable.
Pakistan is vying with Iran for the coveted position of the world's top sponsor of terrorists. It is actively distributing nuclear technology, and unapologetic about it. It supports and hides the Taliban when the ground gets too hot under their feet in their native Afghanistan. And it is locked in a war of terrorism and attrition with India, the world's largest democracy. India, who's become a true friend of Israel in the last few years.
And Israel is continuing on the path of insanity, after surrendering Gaza to the barbarians, talking to the leader of the Islam's most powerful (and only nuclear) country.
Why don't the Jews just all convert? Make life so much easier for everyone involved.
We search the purses of little old ladies so that recent immigrants from Saudi Arabia named "Mohammed" wearing massive backpacks don't get singled out.
